Critics Review

Such a fun, romantic read with a brilliant concept. I loved seeing Wale open up and Temi build her confidence as their love story blossomed – Beth O’Leary, author of The Flatshare
This is novel about so much more than love, it’s about changing your own story, being honest – both with others and yourself – and the power your truth has to help you find the best version of yourself – Ore Agbaje-Williams, author of The Three of Us
This book melted my stone cold heart – Jendella Benson, author of Hope and Glory
A delightful romcom packed with humour and heart. With a deeply lovable cast of characters, irresistible chemistry and a page turning premise, this warm and witty novel is a wonderful celebration of love and storytelling – Rufaro Faith Mazarura, author of Let The Games Begin
The spiritual heir to Bridget Jones’s Diary, while bringing something entirely fresh and modern to the table – Emily Henry on Yinka, Where is Your Huzband?
Warm and fun and sweet – Marian Keyes on Yinka, Where Is Your Huzband?

About The Author

Lizzie Damilola Blackburn

Lizzie Damilola Blackburn is a British-Nigerian writer, born in Peckham, who wants to tell the stories that she and her friends have longed for but never seen - romcoms ‘where Cinderella is Black and no-one bats an eyelid’. In 2019 she won the Literary Consultancy Pen Factor Writing Competition with the early draft of Yinka, Where is your Huzband?, which she had been writing alongside juggling her job at Carers UK. She has been at the receiving end of the question in the title of her novel many times, and now lives with her husband in Milton Keynes.
